[ TEXT; BOTH COURTS ]

[Anyone who knows Lancelot will likely as not be immediately surprise that he is sending any kind of message that is written. It is hardly one of his strengths. Still, the message is short, and this way devoid of emotion. Which is best, considering the topic. ]

For those who knew him Faolan is no longer with us.

He sacrificed himself for the sake of a friend.

So far as I understand he will be returned, in some days, by the power of the courts.

He will need space and kindness.

It is not so easy as that. The shard pieces were scattered, have been within us since we were born. The monarchs seek to retrieve them. To reunite the pieces of the gem. Faolan is sworn to me, to this court, he is accepted now. That does not mean they would grant him a piece of something they aim to restore.

So really what you're saying now is that Faolan's almost no more than Lady. [In the most basic, crude terms. Sorry Lancelot.] That's the downside to the whole thing.

I'm still sorry it happened.

Faolan is my friend.

[ His voice is quiet, but determined now. So much as he loves his dog he will not discredit Faolan with a comparison. ]

He has gone out of his way to help me, to travel with me, to protect me, to listen to and advise me and he is not worth any less than any other man here -- shard or no.

[Oops. Okay, let's backpedal a bit.]

That's not what I meant. I mean of course he's still worthy and he's no less than any other man, that's not--my sister treats her dog like a person! [Ryan you're seriously not helping your cause.] I just meant that there's nothing really controlling him but there's also nothing besides you protecting him. And I'm not saying you can't, but...it's a lot.

That still doesn't make sense, does it?

[ Lancelot's flash of defensiveness eases, but... no, he cannot claim to understand the muddle of thoughts there. ]

Forgive me but no, not as such.

[A sigh.] Sorry, never mind.

...let us know if something goes wrong and when he comes back, okay? [He means "me" but us sounds less personal.]

I would rather not consider such an option. All the same, he will need some space, but I will express your concern to him when he returns. It is his own choice if he wishes to announce himself or not, I will not force him to.

Understandable.

...just don't forget to take care of yourself too, okay? That's just as important.

You are kind to be concerned, but I will be fine. A few days rest will help, I am sure.
